Public Policy and Engagement grants are for efforts intended to inform public decision-making and improve the public’s ability to address a specific issue affecting a clearly defined population. Examples include community engagement activities, efforts to educate stakeholders and policymakers, and public awareness initiatives. Applications are more likely to succeed when the proposed effort is well researched, is aligned with other work in the field and can clearly lead to benefits for the defined population.

Please note: Public Policy and Engagement grants are meant to influence the systems and conditions that affect individual people. If your organization seeks support for direct service to individuals, please complete a Project Support grant application.
